How to Make Easy French Dip Sliders
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2: Assemble the Sliders
- Without separating the rolls, slice them in half horizontally. Place the bottom half in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Layer half of the provolone cheese over the bottom rolls.
- Evenly distribute the roast beef on top of the cheese, followed by the remaining cheese slices.
- Place the top half of the rolls over the layers.
Step 3: Make the Butter Mixture
In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Step 4: Brush and Bake
- Brush the butter mixture generously over the tops of the rolls. Sprinkle with dried parsley, if desired.
- Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 5-8 minutes until the tops are golden and the cheese is melted.
Step 5: Prepare the Au Jus
While the sliders bake, combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Remove the sliders from the oven, slice them into individual portions, and serve with warm au jus for dipping.
